Employee Programs

The department's first programs to increase the well-being and morale of its employees were introduced by the personnel division in the early '50s. A group hospital and surgical expense insurance plan for employees and their dependents was established. A staff training and welfare division was set up to conduct courses and distribute information on the department's activities. The department's first employee newsletter, News on the DoT, also made its appearance.
